What's inside

Polysilicone-11

Not approved for food use, lack of safety data for ingestion, potential toxicity if consumed

Polysorbate 20

Mild skin irritation possible in sensitive individuals, rare sensitization

Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

Potential skin irritation in sensitive individuals, not intended for ingestion, unclear inhalation safety

Dimethyl MEA (Dimethylaminoethanol, DMAE)

Potential skin irritation, unknown long-term safety, possible negative effects on fetal development, unproven cognitive benefits

Water

Safe solvent, non-toxic, non-irritating, essential for formulation

Cetearyl Olivate

Cetearyl olivate is an emulsifying agent derived from the esterification of cetearyl alcohol (a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohols) with the fatty acids of olive oil. It is commonly used in cosmetics, personal care, and some processed food products to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions. While primarily used for topical applications, its food-grade variant is generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used in regulated amounts.

HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer

Improves product texture and stability

Citric acid

Enhances flavor, acts as a preservative by chelating metal ions, stabilizes pH

Silica

Prevents clumping and improves texture in powdered products

Disodium Acetyl Glucosamine Phosphate

Supports skin hydration, may improve skin barrier function, anti-inflammatory properties in topical use

Acetyl Glucosamine

Improves skin hydration, may reduce signs of aging, supports joint health

Polyisobutene

Provides viscosity enhancement, film-forming properties, moisture retention

Sorbitan Olivate

Emulsifying agent, improves texture and stability of formulations, derived from natural sources

Dimethyl Isosorbide

Enhances dermal absorption of active ingredients, improves formulation stability

Ethyl Hexanediol

Humectant, solvent, enhances preservative efficacy

Caprylyl Glycol

Skin conditioning, antimicrobial preservative booster

Hydroxyacetophenone

Antioxidant properties, UV protection in formulations

Ceramide NP

Supports skin barrier function, may improve skin hydration

Phenoxyethanol

Effective broad-spectrum preservative at low concentrations

Phytosphingosine

Supports skin barrier function, antimicrobial against Cutibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus, anti-inflammatory signaling (NF-kB/MAPK modulation), may aid acne-prone or compromised skin

Ethylhexylglycerin

Preservative booster, skin conditioning agent

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9

May promote collagen synthesis, improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles

Sodium Glucuronate

Supports detoxification pathways, potential antioxidant properties, used as a stabilizer or thickener in formulations

Dimethicone

Reduces foam, provides skin conditioning, improves spreadability, chemically inert

Butylene Glycol

Improves texture and absorption of products, acts as a humectant to retain moisture

Niacinamide

Supports skin barrier integrity, improves skin appearance, essential nutrient

Squalane

Spermidine

Cellular autophagy induction, possible lifespan extension (preclinical), cardiovascular health support, neuroprotection (emerging evidence)

Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate

Enhanced skin hydration, improved moisture retention, skin barrier support

Sodium Hyaluronate

Hydrates and moisturizes skin, supports tissue repair, enhances skin elasticity

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer

Insufficient safety data for oral consumption, possible allergenic reactions, unknown effects with chronic ingestion

Hyaluronic Acid

Supports skin hydration, joint lubrication

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-11

May improve skin firmness, elasticity, hydration; promotes collagen synthesis

Glycerin

Moisturizing agent, solvent, stabilizer in formulations

Magnesium Sulfate

Provides magnesium essential for muscle and nerve function, electrolyte balance, mild laxative effect

Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside

Mild surfactant, biodegradable, plant-derived, effective cleaning and foaming agent
